a comparative study of the results of dynamic and opd static measurement of pupil diameter before and after cataract surgery by pupil detectors

Conditions: Cataract

Summary: age-related cataract remains the leading cause of blindness in developing countries. and, with the aging of the population in these countries, the number of cataract patients will continue to grow. with accurate biological measurements and the implantation of a suitable iol, most cataract patients can achieve good distance vision after surgery. studies have shown differences in pupil diameter and sensitivity in patients with different refractive states, with correlations to accommodation status as well as refractive error. the pupil is an important factor to be evaluated during the selection of an artificial lens (intraocular lens, iol), especially a functional iol. among the various instruments used for preoperative cataract biological measurements, the light source is mostly a fixed parameter, and the static pupil diameter measurement by fixed illumination light source detection as an evaluation method is relatively rough. in this study, we are going to simulate different illumination states in daily life and set up two kinds of measurement instruments, namely, opd and binocular pupil detector, so as to obtain more realistic research results and to explore the following: 1. the static and dynamic measurement of pupil diameter by people of different refractive states in different periods of preoperative and postoperative period. 2. whether there is a difference between the static and dynamic pupil measurement results, 2. the change of pupil size under the stimulation of different light sources, and to compare the difference between the two detection methods, to provide objective pupil indexes for the more scientific selection of functional iols, to provide a basis for the selection of more accurate pupil measurement methods, to accurately screen the population of the use of functional iols, and to improve the patient's satisfaction after the operation. purpose of the study to simulate the difference between the preoperative and postoperative pupil diameters of cataract patients measured by static and dynamic methods under daily illumination, to select a more accurate pupil measurement method, and to make corrections for the evaluation of preoperative biometric indexes.
